The recent massacre that happened in Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University has sparked another debate regarding gun control in United States.
I believe that the gun control law should be implemented. Why? Because guns make the bully and the one being bullied equal. And please note that guns are dangerous, they kill… especially in the hand of the depressed person. So which one is the depressed one? Listen to the following conversation:

Bully A (James): Hi Joe ..
Bully B (Joe): Hi James. What’s up with you?
Bully A (James): I’m depressed Joe ..
Bully B (Joe): Why? I thought bullying is fun. Did you bully too many or too few kids? Or is it you stressed because your bullying method is become a routine, no longer excites you? Do you need new bully targets with different demographical background compared to the current ones?

You see? Above conversation is too hilarious to be true. Now consider the person who was bullied:

Bullied Guy: Sigh ..
Imaginary Friend:What’s up with you?
Bullied Guy: I’m depressed … I was bullied again today. ARRGHHH… I want to kill myself …
Imaginary Friend: I have a better idea. Why don’t you buy guns and kill the one bullied you. This way, you can make a payback to him. You also might want to consider shooting random people to build the tension. In the end you could shoot yourself. This way, you will get what you’ve just said.

Coincidence? I think not. There is a pattern here. Bullied people are depressed. So it’s really dangerous to let them having access to gun. Consider the following illustrations:

Bullying Scene Without Gun Control Law:
Without Gun Control

So why do we need Gun Control Law if only the bullied is the dangerous one? Because when the moment come, the Bully will be bullied by the Bigger Bully. The smaller bully will get depressed, losing his bully friends and ended up having an Imaginary Friend. And the deadly circles will continue…

CONCLUSION: Gun Control must be implemented, this way we will only have Bully and Karate Kid. No more mass murderer, School massacrer, random sniper, etc, etc.
That’s what I think, so what do you think?

Found this on YouTube.com

Initially I was sceptic about the effect, but after modifying Firefox’s about:config, it run really fast.
I suspect that it will works if you have Broadband connection.
Any fellow Dial-Up users able to confirm?

Open up my GMail, I found one advertisement from GoDaddy(my current host ^_^!) promoting .MOBI domain.

Taken from the email:
With a .MOBI domain, you can:

  • Catch the latest wave in wireless technology. A .MOBI allows your family members and friends to surf your site directly from their cell phones, smartphones, Windows® Mobile Devices and RIM® devices—on the train, at the coffee shop, anywhere!
  • Tell the world your site is mobile-friendly! .MOBI is recognized worldwide as the Top-Level Domain of mobile-optimized sites.
  • Publish mobilecasts. You can even share mobilecasts from your .MOBI site.

Currently GoDaddy offers $20 for two .MOBI domains

A quick google search for .MOBI returned about 184,000 links. So it’s relatively small compared to 1,340 millions of .COM domains, or 82.3 millions of .NET domains.

I think: .MOBI is not really for general population. If you are a content-provider which target mobile device users, this might be your choice to distribute your contents. Any .MOBI website must be optimized for mobile device users. So it is guaranteed that visitors to .MOBI website will receive content optiomized for the small screen.

Check out Wikipedia entry on .MOBI

So has anyone opened up their .MOBI shop?
